26
Multicellular Organisms: made of many different cells Are very complex (have many parts – legs, roots, wings) Example: A dog
27
Unicellular Organisms: made of only one cell Very small – too small to see with just your eye Example: Bacteria
28
BOTH: ALIVE (living things) Reproduce Respond Grow Organized MADE OF AT LEAST ONE CELL!!!
